DC United team news and form: DC are barely making it
Since the start of the 2024 Major League Soccer campaign, DC United managed to record 10 wins, 10 draws, and 13 losses. This is definitely not the way you can become an MLS champion. If DC United want to put up a title fight, they’d better step it up a notch sooner rather than later.

Player to watch: Christian Benteke
It hardly comes as a surprise that we are featuring Benteke as the player to watch in our professional DC United vs Charlotte prediction, as not only is he the top DC striker, but the best one in MLS right now. With 20 goals to his name, the Belgian goalscoring machine puts the likes of Messi and Suarez to shame.
Second player to watch: Jared Stroud
Benteke may be the top finisher in the league, but Stroud is the best creator for DC United. He assisted teammates on eight occasions and we believe his place among the starters is secured.
